All financial information is presented in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.Dr. Essam Hamza, CEO of CloudMD commented, “We are currently in the worst public health crisis of our lifetime and as a front line physician for over 20 years I acutely understand the toll it is taking on our healthcare system and the importance of access to quality health care. Our CloudMD platform is well equipped to increase access through the availability of our seamless virtual care solutions that allow patients to access quality health care from anywhere. I am pleased with our Q2 results which was highlighted by an oversubscribed $15 million bought deal financing and continued growth across our telemedicine platform. Q2 was a strong quarter for CloudMD and positioned us for increased momentum in Q3 and Q4 of this year. Despite the devastating impact of COVID-19 on the global economy, our revenue and margins were consistent with consensus expectations and we ended the quarter with a very strong cash position. The funds raised provide a warchest of capital which we have already started deploying on accretive acquisitions both on synergistic technologies and brick and mortar practices across North America. We are well funded to capitalize on the significant growth of the sector and will continue to engage patients and empower health practitioners across North America with the back-to-school and flu season ahead.”“On behalf of the Board, we congratulate Dr. Hamza and his team for their exceptionally energetic and purposeful efforts these past months, and for bringing phenomenal progress to our Company as reflected in these financial disclosures. The advent of the oversubscribed bought deal equity financing and its completion in June 2020, has also now armed our Company with a strong cash position and the foundation on which we will continue to allocate capital towards those growth opportunities that will deliver the highest returns for our shareholders,” stated Mark Kohler, CloudMD’s Chairman of the Board.Q2 2020 Financial HighlightsQ2 2020 total revenue was $2,789,987, compared to $1,061,569 in Q2 2019, an increase of 163%. The revenue generated from SAAS model digital services was $459,575 compared to $340,014 in Q2 2019, an increase of 35% primarily attributable to organic growth. The revenue generated from medical clinics and pharmacies was $2,330,412 compared to $721,555 in Q2 2019, an increase of 223% primarily attributable to the Company’s acquisitions over the past year.
Q2 2020 gross margin was 42%, compared to 50% in Q2 2019. Gross margins remained stable as the Company increased the revenue generated from higher margin digital services and telehealth but incurred higher than usual variable costs primarily due to the Company’s expansion into Ontario and short term effects of COVID-19. The Company expects the gross margin to improve as efficiencies are realized and to remain strong for the remainder of 2020 as it begins to recognize additional revenue from high margin sources like digital services, pharmacy kiosk partnerships and telehealth visits.
